if they had enough power, then you're living in a fantasy world. The only thing that would change would be the names. Then a Christian could be convicted and severely punished - perhaps including execution - for marrying a Jew. Or God forbid, a Muslim or Buddhist! Think about that if you decide to sit home on your ass on election day. We get the government that we (collectively) deserve.
